6.2 representin'!!

For anyone curious. The last Ohio meet, I left the truck in D using Tow/Haul. The trans would not get out first without me letting up, which left something to be desired (once again) about the factory tunes. This time, I dropped it into M, bumped it into 2nd ~5,800 rpm with the pedal fully mashed. Didn't have a problem at all, truck handled it beautifully.

Thanks again Mike, great event!

The 6.2 was very impressive! I would have loved to see what the 6.7 would have done but oh well. Glad you you made it again Matt and hope you can make it to the next one.

A run from Steve's 6.7 would've been great for comparison's sake but it's probably better he didn't, the load he had in the back of that thing would've been everywhere.

You got to make it to the next one Mike. If anything write it off as "research".

I would have really like to ride in the ecoboost so see how it would have done.

I suspect it would pull the load..but how fast? Could have been a great marketing tool.
